To reiterate, it's worth reviewing the collisions. You'll see the buildings don't make the slightest movement upon impact. No discernible affect.
On the other hand, as another poster already said, you should compute energy. That goes with velocity squared, so it will be way higher these projectile, compared with a jumbo jet.
Edit: as another poster said, you also should have said miles/hour. That gives you http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=25+pounds%2F2+*+((4500+...), apparently about what a Samsung S3 uses in a year (what am I doing wrong? http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=25+pounds%2F2+*+((4500+... gives me 6.374 kWh. Seems a tiny amount)
